Monosodium Glutamate 200 g – Ajinomoto
Introduce the essence of the fifth taste to your kitchen with Ajinomoto's Monosodium Glutamate, a revolutionary enhancer of culinary experiences. In a convenient 200 g package, you'll find pure, crystalline powder that is key to deepening and enhancing the natural flavors of dishes. This is more than just a seasoning – it’s a scientifically developed ingredient that has been appreciated worldwide for decades for its ability to bring out the umami taste, giving dishes a fuller, more complex, and satisfying character. Usage: Ajinomoto Monosodium Glutamate is an excellent tool for enhancing the flavor of almost any dish. It works perfectly in Asian cuisine by boosting the taste of soups (ramen, pho, miso soup), stir-fry dishes, sauces, marinades, and dumpling fillings. In broths and soups (chicken, vegetable, mushroom), MSG enhances the base flavors, making them more aromatic. Sprinkling a small amount on meat or fish before cooking enhances their natural, savory flavor. Even simple vegetable dishes like stir-fried veggies or roasted potatoes benefit in taste. It can also be added to marinades, breading, sauces, and dressings to make them richer and more expressive. Ingredients: Monosodium glutamate, purity above 99%. E-number: E621 (Flavor enhancer).Monosodium glutamate is a flavor enhancer, not a source of significant nutritional value. It is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, a naturally occurring amino acid. Nutritional and caloric values at typical intake levels are minimal.
The Ajinomoto brand has a remarkably rich and fascinating history that began over a century ago in Japan. In 1908, Japanese scientist Professor Kikunae Ikeda discovered the substance responsible for the umami taste – glutamic acid. Shortly after, in 1909, Ajinomoto Co., Inc. began commercial production of monosodium glutamate (MSG) based on this discovery. Since then, Ajinomoto has become a global leader in seasonings and food products, with its MSG synonymous with quality and innovation in flavor science. This company not only introduced umami to kitchens around the world but also conducts extensive research on nutrition and sustainability, making it one of the most influential players in the food industry. Choosing Ajinomoto MSG means choosing a product from the pioneer of umami flavor development. What exactly is Monosodium Glutamate (MSG), and why is it so valued? MSG is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, one of the most abundant amino acids found in nature. Glutamic acid naturally occurs in many foods, such as tomatoes, mushrooms, Parmesan cheese, kombu seaweed, meat, and even human breast milk. The taste it imparts is known as umami – the fifth basic taste, alongside sweet, salty, sour, and bitter. Umami is often described as "meaty," "brothy," "deep," or "satisfying," and it enhances and harmonizes other flavors in a dish. MSG acts as a flavor enhancer rather than a standalone seasoning. It doesn't introduce new flavor but amplifies and highlights those already present, especially those rich in umami. Used in small amounts, MSG makes dishes more expressive, complex, and full-bodied without the need for added salt or fat. This is especially useful in Asian cuisine, but its applications are truly global. It's important to note that MSG has been thoroughly researched and is recognized as a safe food ingredient by leading health organizations such as the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) and EFSA (European Food Safety Authority). A package of Monosodium Glutamate – Ajinomoto is more than just a seasoning additive; it's a gateway to the world of umami, enabling you to create dishes with extraordinary flavor depth. This is the perfect option for anyone looking to elevate their culinary skills and discover how one simple ingredient can transform the flavor experience in any kitchen. Ajinomoto is a brand that has shaped our understanding of taste for decades, and its product guarantees an authentic umami experience.Brand
